The real estate market is facing clear pressure from high interest rates and elevated financing costs. MBS Securities forecasts that the property absorption rate in the second half of the year may reach only around 40 to 50%, down 10 percentage points year on year, as high interest rates continue to weigh on purchasing power. In the United States, the 30 year mortgage rate rose to 7.28%, its highest level in three years, putting pressure on homebuyers and homeowners seeking to refinance. In Vietnam, slow liquidity and high capital costs have prompted some investors in Ho Chi Minh City and the former Binh Duong area to put apartments up for sale, accepting lower profit expectations to recover capital. Nevertheless, real estate revenue in Ho Chi Minh City reached VND 322.63 trillion in the first nine months of the year, up 8.4% year on year. In project development, local authorities and businesses are stepping up preparations for land funds, housing and resort real estate. Hanoi has ap...

The real estate market is showing mixed developments. In Ho Chi Minh City and Binh Duong, slow liquidity and high capital costs are prompting some investors to resell apartments and accept lower profit expectations to recover capital. Meanwhile, riverside apartment prices in cities have risen sharply over the past five years, reaching 500 to 650 million VND per square meter in some locations as land along the Saigon River becomes increasingly scarce and new projects continue to establish higher price levels. Some projects are offering buyer support policies, such as The Westique Residences, which provides a maximum discount of 13.1% for customers making fast payments, together with extended payment schedules and interest waivers. In Da Nang, studio apartments along the Han River, starting from 1.8 billion VND, are being introduced for rental exploitation. In planning and project development, Hanoi has converted more than 6,000 square meters of land near the foot of Vinh Tuy Bridge fo...

Vietnam’s real estate market is seeing notable developments in planning, project investment and housing policy. Vinhomes is expected to raise the total investment in its urban development along Cam Ranh Bay from VND 85.3 trillion to VND 194 trillion. In Dong Nai, seven of the eight subdivisions of Aqua City have been determined not to incur additional land-use fees after planning adjustments, while the remaining subdivision still needs its financial obligations to be determined. On Phu Quoc Island, the Rach Vem and Ganh Dau areas have been planned across more than 550 hectares for tourism, ecological resort development and coastal spaces. Meanwhile, an urban project worth more than VND 7.1 trillion in Ba Na is expected to reduce residential land by 10 hectares and remove the garden villa category to make room for utility facilities. Regarding policy and housing supply, the Government has asked localities to raise the target for rental social housing to more than 191,000 units and red...

The real estate market has recorded a series of notable developments in major cities and areas with tourism potential. In Ho Chi Minh City, riverside apartment prices have risen sharply over the past five years, reaching VND 500-650 million per square meter in some locations as land along the Saigon River becomes increasingly scarce. The city has also set rental prices for 10 public land sites in the former Binh Duong area, covering more than 61 hectares in total, while awaiting long-term land-use plans. In addition, more than 380 hectares of cleared land in the Long Thanh urban, commercial and service area is ready to be auctioned for land-use rights. The Ho Chi Minh City Land Registration Office has also proposed canceling tax assessment information for a number of social housing apartments because their developers were slow to complete the required documents. In the policy and affordable housing segment, HoREA has proposed allowing residents to exchange adjacent land areas and exe...

In Nen h Ward, Bac Ninh City, more than 800 social housing units are priced at nearly VND 24 million per square meter, equivalent to at least VND 758 million per unit. Meanwhile, the Ho Chi Minh City Land Registry Office has proposed canceling tax assessment information for a number of social housing apartments because the developer was slow to complete the required documents. These developments underline the need for buyers to consider not only selling prices, but also application requirements and related financial obligations. In the commercial and resort segments, Tower F2 of FourS Tower in Da Nang recorded 1,369 reservations after its launch event. Other projects are also targeting diverse accommodation demand. Park Residence a...

T&T Group has also proposed studying four planning...

The real estate market recorded notable developments across the housing, resort and industrial segments. In Ho Chi Minh City, HoREA proposed that electricity and water services should not be cut off for homes where owners are legally residing, even if the properties have construction violations related to renovation or repair work. The city’s People’s Committee also authorized commune, ward and special administrative area authorities to determine selling prices for resettlement housing built with state investment, with the policy applicable through the end of 2030. The Ministry of Construction proposed expanding the group of real estate business contracts eligible for transfer, including houses and completed structures that do not yet have land-use certificates. Meanwhile, buyers were advised to carefully calculate all remaining financial obligations after transactions involving “free home” advertisements in order to limit risks linked to previous owners. In southern Ho Chi Minh City...
